The president has repeatedly attacked Chinese officials during the coronavirus pandemic, placing the blame for the crisis squarely at Beijing's door.
President Donald Trump has singled out a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson in his latest attack on Beijing over the coronavirus pandemic, branding government statements"a disgrace" and blaming the Chinese Communist Party for"pain and carnage" caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.
Trump tweeted late on Wednesday that the"spokesman speaks stupidly on behalf of China, trying desperately to deflect the pain and carnage that their country spread throughout the world. Its disinformation and propaganda attack on the United States and Europe is a disgrace." China's Foreign Ministry spokespeople have been at the forefront of Beijing's response to the coronavirus pandemic and—more recently—defending against U.S. attacks. The spokespeople have also aired conspiracy theories about the pandemic and been pivotal in trying to absolve Beijing of blame.
